Ensuring Service Level Agreements for Service Workflows

2008 IEEE International Conference on Services Computing, 2008
Specifying and monitoring service level agreements (SLA) has been the subject of intensive research. However, methods of enforcing SLA have not addressed the specific issues of composite services (CS). Our work focuses on the problem of keeping prearranged SLAs for service workflows including workflows supporting long lived transactions (e.g.

On the stability of adaptive Service Level Agreements

IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management, 2006
We consider some implications of non-linear feedback, due to policy combinatorics, on policy-based management of networked services. We pay special attention to the case where the monitoring of certain aspects of Service Level Agreements is used to alter future policy dynamically, according to a control feedback scheme. Using two simple models, we show
